This video from Joel Park addresses the common issue of "hot spots" on hands caused by firearm contact during training. Park explains how to identify these areas, which can lead to calluses or raw skin, and offers solutions ranging from using athletic tape to filing down sharp edges on firearms or grip enhancements. The advice aims to help shooters maintain consistent training by mitigating hand discomfort and preventing injuries.
Ben Stoeger explains that he uses athletic tape on his fingers primarily for hotspot prevention, not for indexing. This practice became necessary due to frequent platform switching between various firearms like Glocks, CZs, Sigs, and Walthers, which prevents the development of consistent, hardened calluses. The tape acts as a prophylactic measure to avoid cuts and injuries, especially when training or competing extensively.
